MR. KEV KEV - LORD OF THE WIENERDOGS - Keys & Vocals (WAMI-nominated for Best Keyboardist in 2010, 2009 & 2008)
Where did the name Rabid Aardvarks come from? In 1986, brainstormed 5 pages of names, this one seemed funniest. The original Rabid Aardvarks played mostly hair metal, and ultimately disbanded in 1989 after a few changes in personnel, but I always wanted to use the name again.
If we had to rename the band, would call it: Gigantaur Weenie Roast
Pet: Max the Wonder Wienerdog
Collections: Stinky cheeses of the world, pictures of empty milk jugs, grass clippings, anything with a dachshund on it
Favorite cheese: year aged extra sharp cheddar, or gorgonzola
Best pizza in Milwaukee area: Matteo’s in Waukesha or Tomaso’s in Cedarburg
What I wanted to be when I grew up: Immature. (And I succeeded!)
If I were to be reincarnated, I would want to be: Ginzu knife. It cuts, it shreds, it slices, it dices, it can even feed the cat!
Favorite holiday: (tie) National Chocolate Eclair Day, Take a Plant for A Walk Day
Favorite Beer: Summit Extra Pale Ale
Favorite brand of toilet paper: Charmin, of course!
Elektra-Woman or Wonder Woman? Oh boy, tough call. . . .
Scariest moment while performing: watching Chris P. Crème fall ACROSS the stage at Ruckers when we played together in Bonk, almost taking out his rack of guitars and just missing having his amp fall on top of him
Funniest moment while performing: watching Chris P. Crème fall OFF the stage at Mineshaft when we played together in the nobodys, missing everything but ending up upside-down with his feet on the stage and back on the floor.
What I do for a real job: senior business manager of a local manufacturing company
What my mother would say if she knew what I was doing: Don’t you think it’s a little loud?
